Helix Exploration completed drilling its fourth production well, Inez #1, at the Rudyard Project in Montana, reaching a TD of 6,510ft in 19 days. The well recorded helium shows up to 948ppm or 0.09% (190x background) and is the first to test the southern part of the Rudyard dome, confirming the extension of helium-bearing zones. This enhances confidence in the broader Rudyard structure, following previous wells Darwin #1 and Linda #1 (1.1–1.2% He). The well is now ready for wireline logging and flow testing, with potential to expand the company’s proven helium reserves.
